Jake Kumerow had a busy day. The Bills wideout was released and later re-signed by the organization, per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network (on Twitter).
The transaction was merely procedural, but it did save Buffalo a small chunk of money. Kumerow inked a one-year deal with the Bills back in March that would pay him the league minimum (four-plus years of service). That contract was worth a hair more than $1MM.
Kumerow went undrafted out of Wisconsin-Whitewater in 2015, and he spent the first two-plus seasons of his career in the Bengals organization. He finally made his regular season debut with the Packers in 2018, and he ended up getting into 14 games with Green Bay in 2019.
He’s spent the past two seasons in Buffalo. After getting into only six games in 2020, he appeared in a career-high 15 games in 2021. He finished with only two touches on offense, but he did add five special teams tackles.
Kumerow will be battling for a role towards the end of the depth chart with the likes of Khalil Shakir, Marquez Stevenson, Isaiah Hodgins, and Tavon Austin. More than likely, the 30-year-old is likely destined for the practice squad.

He probably won’t make the roster, but I guess that’s up to the owner of the Bills, Patrick Mahomes.
